Flipping through on Saturday night and came across this movie just starting on I think TBS. Starring Ryan Reynolds and Amy Smart it actually was a pretty cute movie.
The premise is that Chris Brander played by Ryan Reynolds was an overweight, cheerleader at his high school who was secretly in love with is best friend Miss All Everything in school Jamie Palamino. After confessing in her yearbook and being humuliated by her boyfriend he leaves town vowing to be successful.
Cut to 10 years later and Chris is a successful Hollywood record producer escorting a new star played by Anna Farris to Paris to woo her to his record company. She is self centered, vain and obnoxious and sets her meal on fire on the airplane forcing a landing in New Jersey. Being close to home he takes her to his Mom's house. His Mom played by Julie Hagerty of Airplane fame is very funny role.
The rest of the movie is him dealing with his high school friends and unresolved relationship with Jamie. The movie is fairly typical from then on but it is cute and certainly the cast is likable.
Amy Smart plays Palamino, I have never heard of her but she was likable and cute.
A good movie as long as your expectations are not too high.
